COLLEGE VOXBOX

I recently signed up for Influenster after I saw it on a few blogs. I thought the program that Influenster does was really neat and something so different! I got an email a few weeks ago that I was chosen to receive the College VoxBox, to say I was excited is an understatement.

What is Influenster you ask?
"Basically, Influenster is a place for culture junkies to come together and share their unique opinions of products and experiences. Active members of Influenster get exclusive access to deals, promotions, and swag from brands that thrive off the input (the good, the bad, and the ugly -- they just want to know what's up)."

They then sent me the College Vox Box to review and it finally came in the mail this week, I've been patiently waiting on it!

I was thrilled to open it as soon as I retrieved it from the mail room and was actually at lunch with a few friends so we kind of all got to review it together.

Inside the box was a variety of items. I got eyeliner, energy sheets, press on nails, a pen and wafers.

My favorite item was the pen. I LOVED how this pen writes and I will definitely be on the hunt for a pack of these. Finding a good pen is hard to do but I think this one may be the jackpot. It's a Pentel EnerGel pen. Go get one!

The eyeliner was really fun. It has a sparkle to it but its subtle. Enough to make a difference but not look like a clown or obnoxious. It has just a touch of glitter in it, great for a fancy night out. It is NYC Show Time.

The tropical wafers I wasn't a huge fan of. They kind of tasted like tums or medicine. They were just really chalky. I let my friends taste them as well and their reactions were about the same. Maybe if they were chewy and a little less wafer like? But I guess that would defeat the purpose of being a wafer...maybe more success if they were more like a candy. These are Necco Tropical Wafers.

The energy sheets were definitely something I had never seen or heard of. I'll be honest, anything (drinks, sheets, etc.) that say it gives energy scares me. I've just never been a fan of energy boosting things (that aren't all natural). But I did try one of these sheets, it tasted delish haha! I'm not sure if it gave me tons of energy but then again I only took one and you can take up to 3. I do think these were pretty decent though and I thought the packaging was very nice. Also, it comes with a fun sticker! These could potentially be great for people who rely on energy drinks or the like on a weekly basis. These are Energy Sheets.

The imPRESS press on nails I haven't used yet but I will say that I have heard great reviews about this product. I'm not much on wild nails but I do have a friend that is so I may pass these along and let her tell me how she likes them.

I hope to be able to review more boxes from Influenster in the future, I'm off to gather myself some more badges and boost my score!

* I received all of these items complimentary from Influenster to test out and then review on my blog.
